Layered Look

From death springs life. This area will be bringing forth lots green in another month, but for right now, it's just leftovers. What was once wet, thriving greenery swaying in August breezes has come to this in April, eight months removed. Grey matter, matted and stiff to the touch, awaits a delicate raking. Right now, it's not a pretty site, but ample sunlight and spring showers will bring forth new fruit. Life moves on. Birth.

  8. Well, you're partly right. Some deaths bring life. Not all, though.

    Just thought I'd help you up out of the bog! :)

  10. Shiva and Vishnu, eh? The circle can't go on forever, though. Damned entropy.

  11. I am amazed each spring how the grey matter in the marshes and swamps seems to sink so quickly and become green growth.
